Exploring Advertising
International Conference
3/5-5/5/ 2012
Department of Media Studies
Filmhuset, Stockholm

Keynote Speakers: William Boddy, Charles McGovern, Sean Nixon and 
Natalia Tolstikova

As an aesthetic, industrial, and cultural practice, advertising 
has played a pivotal role in shaping the history of virtually every 
modern mass medium. In its ubiquity and ephemerality, avantgardist 
designs and persuasive rhetorics, advertising has epitomized 
modernity as well as popular culture. Today, advertising plays a key 
role in media transformation processes. Bringing together academics, 
industry professionals and archivists, this international conference is 
one of the first to explore advertising as a foundational player in 
screen cultures, and to shed more light on its specific objects, 
screens, practices, and intermediaries.
